Lets see now, how did i celebrate the go, go randy web site’s first anniversary??? Obviously by losing focus and not having updated it in awhile. OK, I am past that,…here it is… a celebration of the sites past year. The highs, lows and inbetweens (a reminder of my favorite stories, best lists and most controversial posts.)

I have made over 170 posts the past year. Updating anything from a trip to Pittsburgh, a concert in Miami, or some strange cat I ran into at a gas station. It has been an interesting year and I hope that you have enjoyed what I have posted.

THE STORIES

1. The Ninja Turtle Story
There are some stories that I have been sharing for a while, this one goes back close to twenty years. It has always been a favorite of mine and is a hit with those that hear it.

2. Oh Jafar…
I Love Parades. I am not afraid to admit it. Always have, always will. I like to watch them, ride my bike in them, listen to the marching bands, and harass the people marching. This goes back to when I was young, but not too young because at one time I was afraid of them. Anyway, you get the idea, I love parades.

3. A Senneway Family Christmas Story
This is a story of a Christmas past… I’m not exactly sure what year this was, I’m thinking it was around 1985/86 and my family was living in Bethel Park, just outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was Christmas Eve and we were going to the evening mass at our church, which was minutes from the house. Gathered to go to church were my mom and dad, my brother Bill(9), sister Beth(4) and me (I was around 11 or 12 years old at the time). We packed ourselves into the light blue family station wagon, got to the church early to get a good parking space, and more importantly seats.

THE CONTROVERSY

1. So, Let me get this Straight

On behalf of the Go, Go, Randy… GO! web site, I would like to announce that the Go, Go, Hero award will be awarded to Random Foreigners.

Random Foreigners you say?

Well the reason for this prestigious honor being given out to Random Foreigners is because of their recent participation in the Go, Go, Randy comment boards and also becoming a fan of the site on Facebook. Continue reading

The Go, Go, Randy…Go! family would like to announce the addition of it’s newest contributer and the fourth Go, Go, Hero Award winner (does it really take much to win an award these days?). As a world renown scientist, Rasmussen P. (Rusty) Cosgrove will be contributing stories based around the world of science and discovery. Cheers to you Rusty, and I hope that your articles are enjoyed by all.

Whether it’s arriving at a party with a sixer of Modelo, carving up some bad ass jack-o-lanterns or showing off his mad google skillz, Dave has exhibited the qualities that are needed in a Go, Go, Hero recipient. With the recent solution to the mystery of the Top Billin’ t-shirt, Dave has shown that he is definitely deserving of this honor. (Hell, I would have given the award to you just for admitting you added the Go, Go site RSS feed.) So cheers to you Big Wave, you are indeed a true hero.

Friday, October 9th marks a new dawn in the history of the Go, Go, Randy… Go! site with the addition of it’s first contributer. New to the online world of blogging and the second to be recognized as a Go, Go, Hero Award is Thomas Kritzer. Thomas will be sharing his views from the other side of the globe while living in Cape Town, South Africa. So, stayed tuned to the Go, Go site to see what Thomas decides to share with us all.

I was playing around on Google to see how my site registers with search engines when I discovered the following. I never thought it possible but on the other side of the world is this fella.

Meet Randy Go. While searching for this site (Go, Go, Randy… Go!) I found his Facebook profile. I believe that he resides in Malaysia and is a huge fan of the Unibrow. No, I am not making this up and yes, THIS IS HIS PROFILE PICTURE. In honor of Randy Go I had to create a new topic for the site and he is the first ever recipient of  the Go, Go, Hero Award.

So cheers to you Randy Go!
